THIRD TIME'S THE CHARM?

The 2007-2021 Toyota Tundra is one of the most popular vehicles for overland travel. It checks all the boxes with a reliable drivetrain, comfortable size, long production run, and plenty of aftermarket support. When Toyota announced that the Tundra would be redesigned for 2022, we wondered if it would live up to the Tundra name.

Spoiler-it does.

The second-generation Toyota Tundra had a production run of 15 years from 2007 to 2021, which is nearly unheard of today. The truck addressed US customers' complaints that the first generation Tundra was too small and underpowered with a big size increase, both for the body and for the engine under the hood.

Along the way, the second-gen Tundra became a legendary overland vehicle for its reliability, payload capacity, and comfortable layout. Enthusiasts and aftermarket manufacturers alike embraced the platform, making it one of the most popular vehicles in the backcountry. So when Toyota announced the third-generation Tundra, it had big shoes to fill.

How would it measure up against the previous Tundra?

The crew at Total Chaos Fabrication was quick to get their hands on the new Tundra to develop new suspension products. The company is very familiar with the previous generation and offers upper control arms, lower control arms, King shocks tuned to its specifications, and more for the 2007-2021 Tundra. They didn't waste any time in making similar products for the new Tundra.
